Winsor & Newton Brush Cleaner - 250ml

This cleaner is specifically formulated for oil, alkyd, and acrylic residues. While it may work, soap and water are usually sufficient for watercolor brushes.

As a professional solvent, it should be used in a well-ventilated area. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of vapors.

For routine cleaning, a few minutes is sufficient. For dried or hardened brushes, an overnight soak is recommended.

You can reuse the cleaner until it becomes too saturated with pigment to be effective. Decant the clear liquid into a new container if needed.

When used as directed, it is safe. Avoid submerging the brush past the ferrule, as prolonged immersion of the metal part can loosen the glue.

The paint may not have fully dissolved; repeat the soaking process for a longer duration and ensure you are working the cleaner deep into the base of the bristles.

Ensure you are using a gentle scrubbing motion and always reshape the damp bristles with your fingers before laying the brush flat to air dry.
